Run the benchmark. If you find it too choppy for your taste, then upgrade. I for one dont find it graphically superior like Crysis or 2033.. not much shader effects etc. Looks like plain old console mesh and effects.

On a side note, I downloaded the benchmark and it didn't even run on my little POS.

Lol. Benchmark seems okay to me. (although generally Square Enix games are good)
Doesn't give you an idea of the game though.
It was like the Dark VOid benchmark which was absolute tosh, but I got the game for testing and it was actually good.

no i wish death to these companies. i wish death the developers who made Crysis and Metro 2033 and this game. i mean it.

i wish their games dont sell and get pirated.

you sound alot like that guy who went around making bash threads about companies because he thought their was some kind of black magic they put in the graphics cards that made you buy them. I for one love and i mean LOVE progress. and i dont mean that in the personal sense. While i do enjoy needing a reason to upgrade I kinda like the fact that game devs have pushed us beyond the 7600GS.

Lol!! There was a similar thread not long ago in which the original poster complained about the high requirements of some games, wishing death to their developers; that forum member was banned. I have the feeling that this could be the same person with a different name.

There's been more than one of them. but its ok, they go away quickly when they dont heed warnings to play nice.

2500 at hi res is quite good, i believe. with my rig i get about 2600 at low res. both scores mean that the game MAY run well, but the funny thing is that with fraps running on the test i never dipped below 35 fps, and usually stayed about 60 fps. i am looking forward to the game, as i played final fantasy XI for 4 years, longest i have played a mmo game. more to the point i love it when the games progress, needing better hardware to run them. when i cant max out everything it gives me a reason to upgrade. if i wanted to stay stagnant, i would own a ps3 or an xbox.
